Chapter 209: Troublemakers 1
readx;
The honest words spoken by honest people are often more hurtful, because they simply don't understand or never want to solve the problem tactfully. Pen~Fun~Ge www.biquge.info Zhang Wenshu is this kind of honest person, but his honesty doesn't mean he's stupid. It's just that he is more pragmatic and a little pedantic.
But because of this, he can't slap the horse on his head, and he won't look at anyone below.
If you think that Zhang Wenshu is honestly a fool, then you must be looking at the wrong person.
Everyone has their own way of behaving, maybe people like Zhang Wenshu can be bullied. But you have to admit that the best reputation in Taichang Temple is Zhang Wenshou. Whether it is customs clearance or a faint official, he has a great impression of Zhang Wenshui. When they meet, they will smile and call 'Lord Zhang', compared with Guo Shan, a guy who crosses the street and everyone shouts and beats, Zhang Wen's acceptance as an official is more in line with the golden mean of being an official.
Li Shimin obviously also knew Zhang Wenshui's temperament, so he didn't get angry with Zhang Wenshui. Instead, he slapped the table and shouted: "He Guo Shan has the face to marry Princess Changle?" But as soon as he thought of this inevitably interrupting Zhang Wenshu's words, Li Shimin waved his hand and asked Zhang Wenshu to simply continue.
Zhang Wenshu said again: "The minister also thinks that Lord Xiao Guo is not suitable for Princess Shang Changle, and the minister thinks that the age difference between the two is quite large, and if you let Lord Xiao Guo Princess Shang Changle is not in line with the principle of yin and yang." ”
Many people who said this sentence rolled their eyes, wondering if this was a problem of age difference? This is a gap in blood and identity. How many children of officials and eunuchs in Chang'an City want to marry Princess Changle, which one is not a noble figure? What kind of person is Princess Changle, she is not an ordinary princess. is a princess who is deeply loved by the queen and the emperor, and she is the eldest daughter of the lineage, which is different from other princesses. If you marry her, you can definitely 'town house', at least you can keep the family peaceful for decades without falling out of favor.
Originally, many officials had never seen Guo Shan, but at this moment, from Zhang Wen's mouth, many foreign officials in Beijing and those who had never seen Guo Shan in Beijing finally knew that Guo Shan was such a person. And in his mind, Guo Shan has been labeled as 'not knowing life or death' and 'shameless'.
How smart is Li Shimin? At this time, I didn't interject Zhang Wenshu's mouth, I really hope that Zhang Wenshu will explain Guo Shan's purchase of grain as soon as possible, and I am afraid that Zhang Wenshu will make more gossip in a mess. Because Li Shimin knows Guo Shan better, sometimes Guo Shan will say some nonsense in front of himself, and Guo Shanzhen doesn't know how many words against etiquette can be said behind his back.
Listening to Zhang Wenshu continue: "I told Lord Xiao Guo and said, 'Lord Xiao Guo, don't panic, I see that you are the same age as Princess Heshun. Since the saint intends to marry Princess Heshun to you, it is naturally a heaven-sent marriage. I was comforting Lord Xiao Guo, but who knew that Lord Xiao Guo cried even more after hearing my words, saying, 'What kind of God-given marriage?' Old Zhang, you don't know, a few days ago, the emperor forced me to marry Princess Heshun, but today the emperor summoned me into the palace and told me to find another family. And you don't know, Lord Zhang, before this, I proposed to a woman, but because of the emperor's decree, my confidante had to cross the sea and return to his hometown, and did not live in the capital. ’”
At this point, everyone said 'huh', and then turned their faces and whispered to their colleagues next to them.
The civil and military officials are still quite gossipy, and they obviously didn't expect that there would be such a thing behind Princess Heshun's marriage.
Li Shimin did cough dryly, others didn't know about it, but he understood a little. I secretly thought that Guo Shan didn't lie to me when he said that he had a marriage contract with someone, after all, he had no reason to deceive me and then deceive Zhang Wenshui.
In fact, how did Li Shimin know that Guo Shan's words are very true, and he will inevitably be mixed with a three-point falsehood. In fact, it is not only him, but almost all people who inevitably reverse some facts when they speak. This is not only the processing of language art, but also the desire to recreate one's own image through art.
When talking to some people in the north, there is always a sentence in the first sentence of the conversation, 'I'm not blowing to you', and some people in the south like to say, 'I'm just a straightforward person'. Guo Shan's speech synthesized all the characteristics, and he himself never spoke too realistically. Saying that Wang Susu is his confidante is bound to take advantage of the flowers. As for saying that the confidante left because of Li Shimin's gift, it was vague. It seems that Wang Susu originally liked him, and the reason why he said goodbye was indeed because Li Shimin forced him. In fact, those who know the details are clear, and things are not like that at all. Wang Susu has no interest in him at all, let alone knows each other.
Originally, I wanted to investigate Guo Shan's purchase of grain, but after being interrupted by Zhang Wen, it turned into an entertainment news revelation.
Li Shimin knew that it was impossible for Zhang Wen to stop talking at this time, so he had to endure and let Zhang Wenshu continue to speak. Of course, because he knows the shortcomings of Zhang Wenshui's character, Li Shimin can tolerate Zhang Wenshui's verbosity. If someone else dared to be verbose in front of him, Li Shimin would have kicked people out long ago.
It was crackling and long-winded for a long time, and the ministers almost didn't want to wave Zhang Wen out with a stick. Lao Zhang finally got to the point slowly: "Master Xiao Guo said that his confidante once lived in Yuzhou. I heard that there was a flood there, so I wanted to hire a boat to go back to my hometown. So his confidante bought some food and cloth and went away by boat, and Xiao Guo may not be relieved, so he also took out a boatload of moon cakes from the moon cake shop and let the Guo family escort him, using it for disaster relief in Yuzhou. ”
As soon as these words came out, the imperial historians sat on wax.
Many people who attacked Guo Shan were speechless, thinking that they didn't want to rebel? How did it suddenly become a disaster relief?
Li Shimin heard the words and asked: "Guo Shan took 10,000 stone of grain, and he also used it for disaster relief?" ”
Zhang Wen said: "Lord Xiao Guo said that the hungry people in Yuzhou are not counted, how can a boatload of moon cakes be enough to help them? And last year's disaster was not limited to Yuzhou? The local people have no harvest, resulting in a sharp rise in grain prices. If the profiteers get rich, how can the people be innocent? The price of rice in Chang'an is not expensive, so it can raise grain as soon as possible for disaster relief. 10,000 stone is a lot of grain, but it is only a drop in the bucket for Yuzhou. And it is better to raise food sooner rather than later, if we wait for the victims to become displaced people and regather in Chang'an, won't the imperial court have to spend means to maintain it? ”
The imperial history who had previously impeached Guo Shan's face was black at this moment, and he had to continue to slander Guo Shan in order to protect himself, and couldn't help but retort: "The imperial court has its own household department to transfer grain for disaster relief, why doesn't Xielulang believe in the means of the imperial court?" ”
How honest is Zhang Wenshou? confided Guo Shan's words as they were. In his eyes, everything that a gentleman does cannot be told to others, so he said: "Lord Xiao Guo said that although the imperial court has some grain, it is impossible to use all the grain for one state and one county. Moreover, in the first battle of Tuyuhun, the imperial court had already spent too much grain and grass. The household department is only in charge of the treasury, how can it be willing to leave the treasury empty because of the disaster victims in several states and counties? Moreover, the number of victims and the disaster situation reported in the above table in each state and county may not be true, and the imperial court is far away in the capital and cannot check it with its own eyes, so it is inevitable that it will listen to it and be biased. In addition, the procedures of the imperial court are cumbersome, and the state and county will request disaster relief, and then the household department will approve it. Then I contacted the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War to escort me, and the procedures were delayed for ten days and a half months, which was really time-consuming and laborious. ”
As soon as this sentence came out, Zhang Wen was able to completely offend the officials of the household department and several disaster-stricken prefectures and counties in Yuzhou on behalf of Guo Shan.
That Yushi may be in a hurry, and he couldn't help but say: "Guo Shanyun grain disaster relief may not be concerned about the people, maybe it is to invite fame to buy straight, and his heart can be punished." ”
As soon as these words came out, he chuckled in his heart.
Sure enough, the surrounding civil and military officials all looked at him like fools.
Li Shimin above was also angry, what kind of stupid person should this be to say such stupid words? Invitation? Buy straight? Guo Shan quietly bought grain for disaster relief, and no one told him, so he just told Zhang Wenshui. If you hadn't gone to catch people's sore feet and pull people out, who would have known that Guo Shan had done this great good deed for the imperial court behind his back? Now you have found out the good deeds of people, and said that people are here to invite fame and merit in front of the court and the emperor
Some people who understand think in their hearts, why did Princess Yongjia send such a fool to impeach Guo Shan? Isn't this a disguised request for credit to Guo Shan? Now that he said this, the emperor must give Guo Shan a reward.
Sure enough, Li Shimin said: "I often dream that the victims of the disaster in various states and counties change their children and eat, and I dream that all states and counties are starving all over the wilderness. Every time I think that there are still people in the world who can't eat enough to eat and can't cover their bodies, my heart is sad. The people are still in dire straits, and they can't sleep and eat. Guo Shan said: 'Why are the people innocent? I don't think it's true. ”
Zhang Wenshu immediately said: "Lord Xiao Guo often says, 'Eat the king's lu, be loyal to the king, and bear the king's worries.'" ”
When everyone heard Zhang Wenshu speak again, their hearts chuckled. I secretly wondered what happened to Lao Zhang Jin'er, was he invited by Guo Shan to invite merit today?
Indeed, Zhang Wenshu's words really made a big ass for Guo Shan. If this sentence was said by Guo Shan himself in Li Shimin, it would obviously not be very convincing. But Zhang Wenshu said this for him at this moment, when Guo Shan was not present. Then, the effect is different.
The imperial historian who had previously impeached Guo Shan almost didn't spit out a mouthful of blood when he heard Zhang Wenshui's words, didn't he want to 'crusade' against Guo Shan? How did it become a commendation meeting? Today is the Yuanri Dynasty Meeting, Your Majesty, don't you make such a fuss?
Li Shimin definitely didn't hear his heart, and even if he did, he would definitely not care.
"Eat the king's lu, be loyal to the king's affairs, and bear the king's worries. Well said! Li Shimin thought to himself, is this really what Guo Shan said? After thinking about it again, Zhang Wenshu couldn't lie to himself, and he would never dare to lie to himself.
Whether such a serious remark was said by Guo Shan, Li Shimin did not intend to pursue it. He looked at the ministers and said, "Guo Shan's words have made me very fortunate, and you Aiqing should keep this in mind." ”
Liang Youliang rolled his eyes, secretly wondering when Guo Shan's style was so high. Return the food of the king and bear the worries of the king. A person who has nothing to do and takes a vacation for half a month is a commodity who can bear the worries of the king?
Although he didn't like Li Shimin's praise of Guo Shan, Liang Youliang knew that he must not interrupt Li Shimin's words at this time. Because political struggles have always focused on balance, the previous stupid lack of imperial history jumped out and did not defeat Guo Shan, but added glory to Guo Shan's face. At this time, the victory and defeat have been divided, and in order to balance Li Shimin, he will definitely beat the board of the imperial history and reward Guo Shan. Now what we need to pay attention to is what the emperor wants to reward Guo Shan.
